Hi All,

Well I was really cautious and waited two weeks before I decided that this issue has been cured.

Ever since changing from the laptop to the desktop the 359 issue has disappeared.

Talking to a work colleague that has his Davis on a laptop, he did not have any issues. So I can only conclude that the laptop has some sort of "noisy" power circuitry in it.

All happy now :D

Cheers
Phil

I quite regularly run my console off a USB port, many but not all USB ports can supply around 500mA.
